T0 a/ZZ whom t Wtcry concern: Y

Be it knownthat I, JOHN R. ROGERS, of Brooklyn, countyof Kings, andState of New. York, have invented a-new and useful Improvement in Linotype #Machines 'of which the following is aspecication My invention has reference to linotype-machines',^in whichmetal matrices which contain a single letter or two letters to be independently used are held in reserve in a magazine delivered singly together with suitable spacers by the action of finger-keys representing the various characters assembled in line, the line transferred to the face of a slotted mold,vthe mold iilled with molten metal to produce the linotype, and-'the matrices finally returned to the magazine from which they started.

The object of the invent-ion is to produce a machine of this character. which is compact in form, cheap in construction, and of such character and simplicity that it 'may besafely left vunder the control ofthe ordinary compositor inexpert in mechanical matters.

To this end the invention consistsin the special construction and arrangement'of the variousparts and combinations hereinafter described in detail.

Figure 1 is a front elevation ofthe machine,

Fig. 2, a rear elevation of the same; Fig. 3, a vertical section from front to rear on the line 3 3 of Figs. l and 2; Fig. 4, a vertical section through the lower partof the magazine with the escapement thereunder on the same line as Fig.l 3, but looking in the opposite direction; Fig. 4, a horizontal section through the magazine on the correspondingly-numbered line of Fig. 4. Fig.' 5' is a perspective view of the casting mechanism, including the pot, the matrix clamping device, the mold, and the ejecting devices. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the knives employed for trimming the slugs to thickness. Fig. 7 is a horizontal section on the line 7 7 of Figs. 9, dto., looking in a downward direction,showing more particularly the casting and ej'eeting mechanisms. Fig. 8 is a front elevation of the parts represented in -the preceding figure, portions being broken away at the front to expose other parts to view. Fig. 9 is a vertical cross-section from front to rear through the casting mechanism Serial No. 57,561. (No model.)

Fig. 1'1 is a vertical section from front to real through the ejecting and trimming devices on the line 11 l1 of Figs. l, 2, 5,8, 9, &e. Fig. A12 is a horizontal section on the line 12 12 of Fig, 8 looking in a downward direction, showing more particularly the sustaining and confining devices for the matrix-line. Fig. 13 is Fig. 10 is a similar a horizontal section on the line 13 13 of Fig. i

8 looking in a downward direction. Fig. 13a is a top plan view'of the mold and the rackbar4 forV operating the same. Fig. 14 is a vertical section from front to rear, the upper part on the line 14 14 of Fig. 1 and the lower part on the line 9 9 of the same figv ure. Fig. l5 is a perspective view of a portion of the elevator for sustaining the, matrices infront of the mold in its elevated posi tion for the delivery of matrices to the distributer. Fig. 16 is a perspective View showving the matrix-elevator and support in its lower position, together with the adjacent end of the assembling devices, from which the matrices are delivered to the elevator, the parts being separated in order to expose their construction to view. Fig. 17 is a perspective view showing the guide or stop for retaining the line of matrices during composition and thereafter releasing the line that it may be delivered to the elevator. Fig. 18 is a View looking toward the right from the correspondingly-numbered line in Fig. l. NFig. 19 isa perspective view showing the mold, its

support, and the actuating devices, the parts being separated in orderl to expose more Fig. 23 is a longitudi- IOO
